Chiropractors graduate schools work to help students learn how to care for patients with health problems of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Students in chiropractic grad schools study how they can use spinal adjustments, manipulation, and other techniques to manage patients' manage pain, particularly in their back and neck.

Schools that offer chiropractic degrees design curriculum to impart skills and knowledge that will help the chiropractic grad student potentially become qualified to work as a professional in the field. Students in a chiropractic graduate school are likely to learn how to assess a patient's medical condition, analyze the patient's posture, spine, and reflexes, conduct tests, identify health problems, provide neuromusculoskeletal therapy, advise patients on health and lifestyle solutions, and refer patients to other health care professionals, if needed.

Common coursework for students in a chiropractic grad school might include classes in anatomy, diagnosis, clinical practice, chiropractic technique, chiropractic philosophy, diagnostic imaging, and ancillary therapeutic procedures. Chiropractic graduate students might also have to complete clinical rotations as part of their educational requirements.
